- In short
- Asynchronous batch processing can significantly cut per-token cost relative to standard synchronous calls when the workload's SLA tolerates delayed responses. It is a cost and latency trade-off, not a quality trade-off: it does not change model accuracy. For regulated workloads, batch processing must be verified against the applicable compliance agreement before governed data is routed through it.
